Donizetti: Anna Bolena - Tragedia lirica in due atti / Act 2 - Va, infelice

Girl, you'll be a woman soon
I love you so much, can't count all the ways
I've died for you girl and all they can say is
"He's not your kind"
They never get tired of putting me down
And I'll never know when I come around
What I'm gonna find
Don't let them make up your mind
Don't you know, girl,
You'll be a woman soon
Come take my hand
Girl
You'll be a woman soon
Soon
You'll need a man
I've been misunderstood for all of my life
But what they're saying girl it cuts like a knife
"The boy's no good"
Well, I've finally found what I'm a-looking for
But if they get their chance they'll end it for sure
Surely would
Baby, I've done all I could
Now it's up to you girl
You'll be a woman soon
Come take my hand
Girl
You'll be a woman soon
Soon
You'll need a man
Girl
You'll be a woman soon
Come take my hand
Girl
You'll be a woman soon
Soon
You'll need a man
